Five: Party Dancing

Everything was set up. We had the cute lights, the drinks, we put everything away, and everyone knows. Not about me, but the party.

I was going to come back as a surprise; a better person. Prettier, more confident -at least acting like it- happier.

Better.

We were chilling on the couch, waiting for everyone to show up. I heard the door open, and I went into the kitchen to grab a pop.

(I'm Minnesotan okay?)

I hear Ariel's voice with some guy voice and Weston's, still unmistakable high, scratchy voice. It was a just little deeper though.

"Hey guys," I smile, walking in and leaning on the beam in the room.

Ariel screams and runs to hug me, I, of course, hug back. "You're back?" She asks and I nod. "You're back!"

Weston just stood there with a stupid grin on his face, obviously waiting for his hug.axyuvg

I hug him very tightly. He's probably my best guy friend from home.

"Who's the boy Ariel?" I ask, gesturing to the tall brunette next to her.

"This is my boyfriend Jonah," she smiled and he kissed her on her cheek. "Jonah this is Lexi. A good friend who moved away awhile ago."

"Well it is nice to meet you Jonah and my boyfriend, Bryce, is right over there," I inform them, mostly for Ariel and Weston, and point to Bryce and Mikey across the room.

"You're back with Bryce?" Weston ask, surprised.

"Yeah, we met back up in Miami and we just clicked again, but don't worry, he's not gonna hurt me like last time."

After talking for a bit and almost all of the group showing up and a lot of screaming when people saw me, I sit back down by Bryce.

I've reunited with everyone in the group except for Blake, Mario aka Cheerio, and Kate.

Next thing I know he walks in. The boy who started and ended everything. He looked older, wiser, more broken than before. I didn't want him to see me staring so I kissed Bryce on the cheek and put my head on his shoulder.

I didn't really want to talk to him, but I wasn't mad at him, well mostly.

When he saw me, his eyes softened, mine did the same. He was with Lauren, the girl I set him up with. He walked away to Hunter and started babbling it looked like.

Eventually, people start flowing into the house, it got louder, and hotter, and messier.

I got more alcohol.

When Swalla came on I squeal and pull Bryce off the couch and into the crowd of "dancing" people. I may have had a littke too much to drink, which is weird because I can usually hold my liquor.

I danced with Bryce until the song was over. We pressed against each other, moving in sync. I turned around so my back was to him and his hands on my waist. My hands reach up onto his face.

Just as the song ended, Bryce spins me around and kisses me.

"I love you," he chuckles, breathing heavily as we let go.

"I love you too," I reply, kissing him again when Instruction comes on and I basically freak out.

It was one of the first dances my choreographer, Alfredo, taught me, plus Demi Lovato is one of my biggest role models.

I dance to the beat, still singing the song. I didn't notice that everyone stopped and formed a circle around me, watching, until Kaitlyn joined in. She's a dancer and she helps me learn the dance moves I have trouble with.
